Video Tutorial: Basics of Creating T-shirt Designs for Creative Allies

This video tutorial will help you understand how to properly set up your T-shirt design for uploading to Creative Allies. In it you will learn the difference between vector and raster files, setting your file size in Adobe Photoshop and using the Creative Allies T-shirt template.

Tip 1: Always design on the Creative Allies T-shirt template to ensure your size and resolution are correct.
Tip 2: Keep all your artwork within the blue line to make sure nothing is lost during printing.
Tip 3: Since most t-shirts are screen printed make sure you keep your colors separated on different layers.
Tip 4: Uploading a .jpg will work for the judging but the winning designer must be able to provide a hi-res layered file.
